Hello all,

I have an iMac intel dual processor desktop to a TV. Mini displayport from computer to VGA in back of TV, all that is good. (Adaptor necessary.)

I am watching a movie on Safari and would like to black out all but the streaming movie area. I know I can use Cmmd and "+" sign to make the movie area larger, but prefer not to, it becomes grainy.

Is there a program buyable, shareware, or something already in Leopard that can achieve this?

Thank you!

Most of the browser based video players have full screen mode. Don`t you want to try that first?

Thanks NW,

I have and it works beautifully!

This is for the occasional site that does not have that feature.

No, there is no app that will selectively black out particular areas of a browser window. There are some sites which have built this function into their site - such as hulu.
